There was an American writer who often told such a story to his friends and readers:
It was an exhibition of the artists’ works organized by the Red Cross. I was invited as a special guest to take part in the exhibition. During this period, two cute girls of 16 or 17 years old came to me and asked for my signature(签名)。
“I haven’t brought my pen. It the pencil okay?” I asked. In fact I knew they wouldn’t refuse. I just wanted to show a well-known writer’s good manners to the common readers.
“Certainly,” the young girls readily agreed. I could see they were very excited. Of course, their excitement also made me more pleased with myself. One of the girls handed her notebook to me. I took out my pencil, wrote a few words of encouragement, and signed my name. The girl read my signature, frowned(皱眉), looked at me carefully and asked, “Aren’t you Robert Charboss?”
“NO,”I told her proudly, “I’m the author of Alice Adams, the winner of two Pulitzer Prizes.”

E 修辞). There are many of these. Here we learn some of them, such as similes, metaphors, hyperbole, and personification.
Similes and metaphors are both comparisons(比较)between two unlike things. But they are not the same. Similes use “as” or “like” to compare two things. For example, “hard as stone” “spend money like water” are similes. Metaphors are comparisons between two unlike things that seem to have nothing in common. “Life is a book” and “A policeman took me out of the snake of traffic” are metaphors.
Hyperbole is also a figure of speech. It is a form of exaggeration(夸张).People often exaggerate when they speak or write. For example, “There were a million people in the store” is hyperbole. “You are the whole world to me” is, too.
Finally, people often give things and animals human characteristics. This is personification. “The wind is whispering” is one example, so is “My dog is speaking to me”. The wind and a dog are not humans, but they have human characteristics here. So they are examples of personification.
kinds of figures of speech to us.
A. 3 B. 4 C. 5
63. “”shows the use of simile.
A. My love is like a red rose B. She is as tall as me C. He likes games.

The expression “ go for it” comes from football. Not football as it is played in most countries, but the kind of football in the United States and Canada.
American football is a difficult game to explain. But the basic idea is that each team tries to move the football across the goal line of the other team. One of the rules is that a team must move the ball forward（向前）at least ten yards ----- a little less than ten meters ----- in four attempts. It loses the ball to the other team if it fails to move that far.
One of the most exciting times in football comes when a team has failed, after three attempts, to move the ball forward ten yards. Then the team must take an important decision.
One choice is to try a fourth and final time. If the team succeeds, it keeps the ball, and continues to move forward. But if it fails, the other team gets the ball at that place on the field.
The second choice is to kick the ball. The team gives up the ball if it makes this choice. But a good kick can put the other team at the far end of the field, making it more difficult for that team to score.
People watching a football game are certain to shout their advice. Some will shout, “Kick the ball!” But others will urge the team to take a chance, to live dangerously. “ Go for it !” They will shout.
56. “go for it!” is an expression which comes
from a sports game that Picture ____ shows.
57. The second paragraph（段落）mainly tells us about the ______ of the game.
A. teamsB. fieldsC. four
58. A team has ________ choices after three unsuccessful attempts.
A. two B. three C. four
59. After four attempts, if a team fails to move the ball forward ten yards, they’ll _____ the ball.
A. keep B. loseC. kick
60. When people shout, “go for it”, they hope the team chooses to ________.
A. kick the ball B. try a fourth time C. give up the ball
C
Most have heard of the American Prom. This is the senior students’
school leaving party. The British name for the event is a Leavers’ Ball or
Leavers’ Dinner, although some UK schools call them Proms, too. In
Canada, Ireland and Australia the terms Grad or Formal are most
common and in South Africa it is called a Matric Dance.
Some Matric Dances in South Africa still follow the old British traditions. Before the dance, pupils are given lessons in dancing. School leavers invite a partner to the dance. The girls have dresses especially made for the event. To save costs the dance is often held in the school hall.
American Proms have become elaborate（精心的）and expensive, complete with luxury hotel ballrooms（豪华的酒店舞厅）, live bands and expensive prom dresses. They now include after-Prom activities that often extend into the early morning of the next day.
The Leavers’ Ball in the UK is not so formal（正式）. The girls also wear ball gowns and the boys suits. A dinner and disco will be held at a local hotel. Each pupil buys a ticket and can go with a partner or just arrive with friends.

A. testB. game C. party

After a study showed that one in every ten meals in the country may be cooked in with dirty oil, the State
Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) on Thursday issued an emergency notice （发
布紧急通知）to restaurants nationwide, warning them against recycling oil.
The swill-oil is cooking oil refined from kitchen waste that has been recycled.
Although it looks clean and clear, it’s actually so dangerous to people’s health that it
may cause cancer.
According to a report, Recycling
one ton of kitchen waste will produce 130 kg of swill oil. With its price being half that of normal cooking oil, a profit（利润）of 1.5 to 2 billion yuan is produced in the whole swill-oil business in the country every year. The profit is almost 200%, so it’s easy to understand why the business is so hot.
He Dongping, a professor from Wuhan Polytechnic(WHPU) said, “To stop the use of dirty oil should start at its source, kitchen waste. And the first step is to find a good way of collecting kitchen waste.” “However, it might take about 10 years before China could solve the problem completely,” he added.
66. According to the study, _________ of us may have eaten the food cooked by dirty oil.
A. fewB. nobodyC. many
67. It’s ________ to tell the difference between swill-oil and normal cooking oil just by looking.
A. fastB. easy C. hard
68. The underlined sentence “means that the swill-oil business is really a ________.
A. big money-maker B. common situationC. terrible thing
69. We can infer（推断）from this passage that _______.
A. the biggest problem is that restaurants produce too much kitchen waste.
B. the way of dealing with kitchen waste isn’t good enough now.
C. we can stop the use of swill-oil in a short time if we take it serious.
70. The main topic of this passage is about _______.
A. restaurant serviceB. food safety C. eating habits

When you look at clouds, you will notice that there are many different kinds. Some clouds are high and thin, some are white and fluffy（蓬松的）, and others look dark and heavy.
There are four kinds of clouds. They are high clouds, middle clouds, low clouds, and clouds that grow vertically（垂直的）. And the clouds in these four groups are named for the way they look.
Cirrus clouds are high clouds that are more than 5 kilometers above earth. Cirrus clouds look like curly hair, and the word cirrus just means “curl of hair”. Some high clouds that look like layers（层）are called cirrostratus clouds. The word status means “layer”.
About 3 to 6.5 kilometers above earth are the middle clouds. Altostratus clouds are light gray, and Altostratus clouds are very fluffy. Another cloud that sometimes can be a middle cloud is Nimbostratus cloud. Nimbo comes from the word nimbus, which means “heavy rain”. These clouds make a gray layer from which rain and snow falls.
The low clouds are no higher than about 1.6 kilometers above earth. Two kinds of clouds are often found
here. Stratocumulus clouds are light and dark. Stratus clouds are very low.
The foutth froup of clouds grows vertically. These clouds have a hase near the ground but rise to a great height. Cumulus clouds can grow up on top of one another. When they grow up high, they are called cumulonimbus clouds. These clouds can rise as high as 18 kilometers.
